Really need a new Vita memory card. There's nothing I want to delete to make room for Killzone. Might take the plunge and grab a 64gb card.

Played Aaru until I beat the first "boss". Controls are so bad for no explicable reason but it's fun once it clicks. I wish there were in game collectables though, as I never care about speed run stuff and it seems like the gameplay mechanics would be well suited to secret areas, etc.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
Game is 3635mb with patches and all
Freedom = $1.05

you need an 8 gig card at minimum to download it.

Played Monsterbag last night for about 15 minutes and then deleted it. Hate the artstyle, it's incredibly ugly, IMO. It joins "Stick it to the Man" as one of two games I've quit due to sheer ugliness.
I don't really understand why they put jump on one of the shoulder buttons (and that you can't change it back to the X button by exemple). Pretty sure it will make a lot of players quit early.
And yes, the game is very "speed run oriented".

I liked Stick it to the Man. I guess art styles rarely bother me.
Well, that artstyle may appeal to you. It's a personal-taste kind of thing and I'm not saying people who like it are wrong. The character designs in those games remind me of late-90s Nickelodeon cartoons which I assume the creators probably grew up watching. I didn't care for it then and I still don't now.
That's a perfect comparison. That kind of art style irrationally irritates me.

I hope MonsterBag gets interesting at some point, because four levels in and I'm about ready to delete it. Don't mind the art style, but it's just so... dull. And it takes up a bloody massive amount of memory card space. =\
?? It was just 400-something Mb for me

There was an additional 220-ish MB day one patch for it on my end.

I finished Monsterbag, took me about 2 hours.
It's a very cute puzzler with some obtuse elements in it. Otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, it's very cartoony and bloody and I enjoyed how seamless the level changes were with the art making it like a flowing cartoon.
If you got time and enjoyed the first few levels, go on and beat it. It's short but sweet.

You can just map it to X in the PS4 settings now.
They reduced the size of the patch significantly, I could be wrong but I think it fits on a 4GB card now.
Yeah, game says 3,743 MB for me installed on version 1.11, but I'm not on a 4 GB card, so I don't know if it can fit.

Why is Never Alone still not on the store?
Not from what I've seen. Some rooms brought the game down to what looked like single digit frames per second along with screen tearing on the PS4.

I cant access the webstore right now. Only the actual PS4 store on the PS4. I'm using my Vita to type this post.

The art style for Stick it was awesome. They really nailed the style. It looked amazing. Monster Bag doesn't look a patch on it.

That worked for me while it didn't appear at all on the PS4 store and the app showed it but wouldn't let me log in to download it.

maybe that's outdated info but the PSN Store itself says you need an 8 gig card minimum

So yeah, I agree that this month is kinda weak.
I'm enjoying Never Alone for what it is (a meh platformer with a huge cultural draw) It's the kind of game that I love to support because of the cultural meaning of it more than for its a-bit-below-average gameplay. Also, does Unity hates the PS4? This and Surgeon Simulator seem to run at 40 fps with stutter or something (it's not my console before you want me to send my console back to Sony)
Tower of Guns is fun until you reach the third level or so, and then everything is so repetitive. Oh, and wait until you reach this part! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6AkuOxg8LY just look at the wonderful framerate.
Aaru's Awakening is just... bad. Like, really bad.
I'm not one of those guys that wants just AAA-Retail games on Plus. I love my indies and I'd rather have Bastion or Shovel Knight than an offensively bad retail game like Knack, but this month's offerings are just really weak.

It seems you can't save mid-mission in Killzone. Just lost like an hour of progress because I thought the game would save at the checkpoint, when I close it.
That's really bad for a "Pick Up&Play"-handheld title. It kinda kills my interest in it.
So now Monster Bag will be the only Plus-game I'll play this month. (Already played Never Alone before)
That's definitely the weakest month in the 1 1/2 years I've been a Plus-subscriber. It's not that bad, because I have enough other games to play atm.

I liked Stick it to the Man
Stick it to the Man was great, yo!
Give Killzone a chance. It's great. Missions aren't overly long.
What I played was really decent. Controls are a bit crampy on the Vita, but I expected that.
I will definitely give it another chance sometime, but right now I have just too many other games to play.

That should be the page for AU, no?
Update your game. The autosave at checkpoints was added via patches.
That worked, thanks. Still doesn't seem to come up when I search for it on the PS4 app though.

Maybe I give Dishonored another try? I played it about 2 hours before I sold it.
